Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Meriwether is kind and has excellent communication with my 4 year old. He listens patiently and his staff is always pleasant.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Meriwether?
It's interesting that Mr. Meriwether lists abdominal pain on his list of treatment specialties, as when we visited him for this exact issue, he never once touched or examined my child at all, rather he questioned her mental health and suggested counseling. Are you kidding! At least examine the child, ask about their symptoms. Mr. Meriwether is clearly a provider who doesn't care about children's health. If you want decent healthcare for your children, do not see this provider.
